Twelve papers, grouped into the middle two sections of the book under plant and frugivore strategies, respectively, illustrate both the diverse (comparative, experimental and computer modeling) methodologies used by researchers and the potpourri of topics that go under the rubric of frugivory and seed dispersal.

The interruption of ecological processes, such as the plant animal interactions associated with frugivory and seed dispersal has been widely shown to diminish plant species richness, one of the characteristics for which the Choco biogeographic region is a global conservation priority.
